Kyoto kisses her

Chapter 136 Injection
"Can't you just take medicine?"

Su Ruoyun curled up in the quilt, her face flushed an unnatural red, which was particularly striking. She looked at the female doctor in the white coat standing opposite her and said in a muffled voice.

The female doctor's gaze was professional and calm as she explained methodically, "Your fever is caused by heatstroke. You'll need to drink Huoxiang Zhengqi Water later, which contains alcohol. To avoid adverse reactions, it's best not to take it with medications like ibuprofen."

"Moreover, given the current situation, injections are the best way to quickly bring down body temperature."

The female doctor just took Su Ruoyun's temperature again, and it was already above 40℃.

As she spoke, she looked at Huo Jingcheng standing beside the bed. Huo Jingcheng nodded, indicating that she should get the medicine. The female doctor bent down to reach for the medicine box. With a crisp "click," the medicine box opened, revealing it filled with various kinds of medicine.

She skillfully took out syringes and ampoules from the medicine box, then mixed the medications together, her movements fluid and effortless.

Su Ruoyun clutched the top of the blanket with both hands, her heart ashen, her eyes staring blankly at the crystal chandelier above her, sobbing uncontrollably: "Waaah~"

After a long silence, she finally relented, her voice carrying a faint hint of death, "Come on."

The female doctor was slightly taken aback, somewhat surprised. She had been practicing medicine for many years and had served as a family doctor for many other people, especially those girls who were 'pampered'. Some of them had to be coaxed gently, while others would cry incessantly.

Su Ruoyun pouted, and said with concern, "Then be gentle, okay?"

The female doctor, with over twenty years of experience, nodded and then raised her finger to flick the ampoule.

The sight terrified Su Ruoyun. She sniffed, confirming again and again, her voice soft and almost ethereal: "Be gentle, okay?"

The female doctor replied, "Okay."

Huo Jingcheng sat down on the side of the bed, hooked his arms around Su Ruoyun's shoulders, and slowly helped her up.

Su Ruoyun's beautiful eyes were swollen and red from crying. Her eyes stared blankly at the vase on the coffee table. She leaned obediently on Huo Jingcheng's broad shoulder, her eyes half-closed, looking listless.

Then, she was gently turned over so that her back was facing up.

Su Ruoyun turned her head, leaned on his shoulder, and adjusted to a comfortable position. Out of the corner of her eye, she inadvertently saw the female doctor not far away.

Wearing a white coat and a mask, with a calm and 'ruthless' expression, just like in a TV drama, he skillfully pushed the syringe, and the medicine in the needle flowed out smoothly.

She bit her lower lip, her pale pink lips turning slightly white from the biting. Not daring to look directly at him, she slowly turned her head back to face Huo Jingcheng's sharply defined profile, her gaze falling on his side of his neck, his Adam's apple bobbing almost within reach.

Seeing her unease, Huo Jingcheng seemed to sense it, raised his hand and patted her shoulder lightly twice.

Water droplets occasionally oozed from the sharp needle tip. Since the injection was being given in the buttocks, the female doctor carefully lifted her knee-length, milky-white silk nightgown and pushed it up little by little.

The woman's slender legs were gradually exposed to the air, delicate and straight. Her rounded toes couldn't help but curl up on the sheets, creating a few swirls. Her silk nightgown was pushed up little by little, eventually bunching up around her slender waist, revealing her graceful curves.

The pink and white of cherry blossoms came into view, and Huo Jingcheng's eyes turned deep and dark. His gaze lingered on the fair skin without any restraint. For some reason, a dry and itchy feeling rose in his throat, as if a dry fire was burning there.

He cleared his throat.

The injection site was on her side buttock. The female doctor pushed her underwear to the side and then gestured for Huo Jingcheng to take it. Huo Jingcheng's Adam's apple bobbed slightly, and he glanced to the side awkwardly before readily placing his hand on her buttock.

His calloused fingertips gently caressed her skin, causing a soft ripple. He raised his hand to support the back of Su Ruoyun's head, and as their eyes met, he lowered his voice and slowly told her about good ways to distract herself and relieve pain.

Because she had been crying for so long, Su Ruoyun's voice was hoarse. She asked in a husky voice, "What's a good method?"

"Come a little closer," Huo Jingcheng coaxed patiently.

Su Ruoyun was delirious with fever. After hearing his words, she blinked and leaned forward, asking, "What?"

"Come a little closer." Huo Jingcheng's voice was deliberately lowered as he coaxed gently.

She approached him little by little without warning, and just as she opened her mouth to ask him "what good method do you have?", the words were cut off.

The moment he lowered his head to kiss her lips was also the moment the needle pierced her skin.

A short whimper disappeared from their mouths.

The female doctor stood to the side, listening to their whispers. She couldn't bear to watch and thought to herself, "Since when kissing can relieve pain?"

Despite her inner grumbling, she swiftly inserted the syringe into her buttocks, injected the medication, and then decisively withdrew her hand, displaying the composure of over twenty years of professional experience.

The female doctor took a box of Huoxiang Zhengqi Water from the medicine box and placed it gently on the bedside table. The maid waiting beside her politely asked her to leave.

After a moment, Su Ruoyun slowly recovered from her emotions. Her head was still dizzy, and she raised her hand slowly as she gently wiped away her tears with the back of her hand.

She sobbed, her voice still thick with tears, as if it had been soaked in tears for a long time, "She's very good at giving injections, can I take her away?"

Upon hearing this, Huo Jingcheng was both amused and exasperated. His distinct fingers smoothed out the wrinkles in the silk nightgown, then slowly lowered it, covering a patch of snow-white skin. "Then you'll have to ask her."

As he spoke, he held Su Ruoyun in his arms, reached out and took the box of Huoxiang Zhengqi Water left on the bedside table, took out a bottle, inserted a straw, and brought it to Su Ruoyun's lips.

A strong, pungent medicinal smell gradually filled the air. Su Ruoyun wrinkled her nose uncomfortably, clearly disliking the smell.

Due to her illness, she could only lean on Huo Jingcheng's shoulder and sip the cigarette intermittently. After finishing the bottle, Huo Jingcheng threw it into the trash can, bent down, and put Su Ruoyun back on the bed.

After crying for most of the night, Su Ruoyun's eyelids were swollen. She closed her eyes weakly and soon fell into a deep sleep.

Huo Jingcheng raised his hand, brushed the strands of hair that were stuck to her cheek, and leaned down to kiss her forehead.

The movements are gentle and won't wake anyone.

He then reached out and turned off the bedside lamp, instantly plunging the once orange-yellow master bedroom into complete darkness.

With the little one in his arms running a fever, Huo Jingcheng had something on his mind and couldn't sleep well. He woke up every half hour until Su Ruoyun's fever subsided and her temperature returned to normal before he finally fell asleep.
